Ashley + Keith :: Engaged

Ashley and Keith drove up from their home in New Jersey this holiday weekend, and lucky for me they were
able to make some time for an e-shoot while they were here!  To top it off, the weather cooperated too :)

We met at Badgerow park, with their new puppy Emma for a few shots.
Then headed down to Ontario Beach Park for some more fun photography on the beach!

I love dogs!  And what a cute family :)

Then to the pier!

I couldn't resist going black and white with this one:

Ashley had this great idea, and I loved how it turned out!

Along with the sunset, we had a 'sun dog'!

A great way to end the evening on the beach.

Jeff + Michelle :: married

Oh I am so happy for my cousin Michelle and my new cousin Jeff :)
They are the cutest couple, and I just had to get a few shots of their wedding this past weekend
because it was just so nice! 

It only rained during the ceremony and I think it added a nice touch to the magical day.
Holiday Valley were great hosts, and their venue & hotels are top notch..

Congrats you guys!

Even in the rain it was beautiful.

Jeff couldn't be happier

Their happiness is so contageous!

There are a few more in their short gallery here too!

Bob + Alex :: married

Congrats Alex & Bob!
What a great weekend in Northern Vermont :)

The ceremony was held at the United Church of Westford.
And the reception took place at the barn at Boyden Valley Winery.
Both great places for a wedding!

We stayed at Smuggler's Notch, and can't wait to get back up there, it was awesome.

The cute jugs are of some locally made, world famous maple syrup!

I loved the portico on the front of their church, the men looked so great there :)

And the women just rocked it on the front porch of her parent's home:

The inside of the barn was just great, I didn't know what to expect, but man when I got there I was impressed:

Firestations

I recently took a few photos of some completed projects for Bergmann. 
The subjects are local fire stations, I actually worked on the first one as well,
from schematic through construction admin.  So it was great to get to document it completed!

Here are a couple of the exterior shots I got:

timmy :: visiting

So my little nephew was in town for Easter! 
I just had to take some photos of him while he was here, he is just growing so fast!

Steel Magnolias Bout

Heather had a derby bout this past weekend, so I got a press pass and went to the dome with her to document it.
This time, however, I decided to try some off-camera flash at the bout.

Man, I think it worked out well :)

More of my roller derby photos can be found over on mitchsgallery.com

Kristina + Chuck :: Engaged

I had the wonderful opportunity to do an e-session with a local roller derby star and her fiance this past weekend! 
Here are a few of the images we came away with :)

She can certainly bring the pain to those that get in her way on the track, but don't let that fool you. 

We took a couple quick shots in front of their place before heading to the Parma Town Park.
The weather was all over the place, but it stopped raining mid-afternoon and we headed out.
Sorry it was still so windy though Kristina!



This couple was so comfortable with each other it was great.  They just naturally looked awesome together too! 

I loved this shot personally:   

This was one of the few poses I came up with, for the most part they just automatically looked good together :)



Thanks again you two!  Congrats on the engagement!
